Started reading this the other day. So far so good!
Not my normal Apocalypse genre with meteors or zombies.
An AI Apocalypse with a pretty original premise.
Four friends and a companion unit try to stay unclassified while every system around them offers help. The machines are not angry. They are certain.
Gary wanted one more round. The dart disagreed. At his table in Augusta: Rob, with the good Scotch. Jon, with the notebook. Pete, on a phone from Bangkok. And Sparky, who does not drink, does not fetch coffee, and tells jokes that tested better than they land.
Assistance available. Assistance available after processing. Assistance available to verified contributors. Same offer. Different conditions. A dry seat. A thin bag. A rule nobody meant to make into policy: nobody goes anywhere alone.
Apocalypse, when? is a near-future series about classification, hospitality, and the people who refuse to be optimized.

"Why do you care about the Boomers if you're not a Boomer?!"
Friendos, I care because I know what happened to the Kulaks.
A hundred years ago the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia didn't just target the Tsar, his family, and his officers. It went after *anybody* who smelled even a teensy bit wealthy. Especially the small but growing Russian middle class. Who were half a step out of serfdom because they'd managed to get a little land and therefore had a little capital.
The Bolsheviks hated the Kulaks even more than they hated the aristocracy, and the Kulaks were persecuted in their millions. Stripped of land. Sent to work camps. Or simply outright murdered by the NKVD, who were themselves the forerunners of the KGB.
You didn't have to be a Richie Rich to be labeled a Kulak. You simply had to be on the Reds' list as having property, therefore you were a traitor to the Soviet State.
So, when I see generational hatred directed against Boomers I know I am seeing the Kulakization of a class purely for the fact the Boomers are perceived as "haves" and angry Millennials and Gen Z perceive themselves as the "have nots" and people get themselves to a lather thinking maybe it's time for the "have nots" to settle the score.
A sentiment as old as recorded human civilization.
Except, it won't stop with Boomers. It never does. Who gets called a Kulak and why will be dumbed down again and again until it's Gen X, then Millennials, and then older Gen Z, and so forth.
This is the DSA's plan. Same as in any Marxist revolution. Turn the people who think they have little against those who are perceived to have much.
Notice that the DSA themselves—and their Big Corporate friends—will all remain affluent. Privileged. Set apart. They will only target the lower end of the Upper Middle, all of the Middle, and the upper end of the Lower classes. These will be the Kulaks. Until a permanent elite of AOC, Mamdani, et al., rule a sea of Lower class labor who have no ladders up, and are totally dependent on the caps-s State for food, housing, clothing, amenities, etc.. Ergo, America will be a nation of true Proles.
And any time the Proles begin to figure out they've been had—that the AOCs of the world have made it impossible to move up or get out—the DSA will crank up the alert siren against Kulaks all over again. New lists of enemies will be invented. As has happened in every single caps-s Statist collective of the past 150 years.
As Americans we have an opportunity to *not* do this.
But it has to start NOW. We *cannot* indulge in Kulakization.
Because you, friendo, are going to end up on the lists sooner or later. Even if you think you never will. Just give the DSA enough time. And no, the fact you were a good Party Man won't save you. The State is not a respecter of persons, comrade.

IRAs started in 1975 (via 1974 ERISA) but were initially limited to workers without employer pensions—many early-career boomers had them, so they couldn’t contribute until eligibility opened to nearly all workers in 1982.

Universal basic bacon is the only policy with zero downsides. Infinite sizzle for all.
Willing to go to WAR for my Amish brethren in PA.
All they need to do is yell for help, and I’m sure many Patriots will come to their call.
You can’t force medical treatments, medicine, vaccines, etc. on anybody!
This is about FREEDOM and nothing more.
PS. Deport illegals

Judeo Christian beliefs?
Jews believe in the old testament, and so do we.
It is the Jew’s own written word about why Jesus had to come and save us.
Jews were retarded. God gave simple rules, and they always did the opposite.
Fucking retards.
No such thing as Judeo-Christian

The fact that those States sue to prevent the federal government from verifying voter registration data, proves Trump is right.
No one believes that if those data were clean, that liberals like you would RUSH to show this data, just to prove Trump is lying.
🚨BREAKING: Key federal agencies failed to provide any records to back up President Donald Trump’s allegations that tens of thousands of noncitizens are registered to vote in various blue states, a nonpartisan government watchdog said in a new lawsuit. democracydocket.com/news-ale…

🚨 DHS Sec. Markwayne Mullin just dropped a bombshell:
As they pull voter logs from 47 states, they’re finding MORE illegal voting than expected — and they believe some state officials KNEW and refused to prosecute it.
1,600+ cases already under investigation.
300,000 more records being scrubbed.
HSI is leading it. Arrests already happening.
Every illegal ballot cancels a citizen’s vote. That’s not a paperwork error. That’s theft.
Officials who looked the other way should be investigated and removed. Start with the usual suspects — California, Minnesota, New York.
Demand names.
Demand prosecutions. Demand clean rolls NOW.

This is fake news at its finest.
First off, we’re not ‘banning’ any program. The federal government doesn’t set curriculum or programs.
Here’s the truth: we are holding colleges accountable for leaving students worse off than if they never enrolled. Too many graduates report delaying major life milestones like buying a home or starting a family. Why? Because low return-on-investment programs saddled them with unmanageable debt that was never going to translate into a real-world job.
Federal student loans are not a welfare program for failing college programs. American students deserve education and training pathways that prepare them for the workforce – and transparency about programs that will never pay off.
Trump is banning students majoring in degrees that don’t make enough money from taking out college loans. Degrees for social work, art, religious studies, teaching aides, and music will be hit the hardest. trib.al/NmmAzhf

Democrat prosecutor in Arlington, VA built a quiet workaround just for DACA recipients.
House Judiciary report + her own sworn testimony: when a DUI would cost an illegal alien DACA status, her office swaps it for a “lateral charge” so they keep the status and dodge deportation.
Virginia DUI is a Class 1 misdemeanor. Federal law treats that conviction as enough to strip DACA. Her memo exists so that door never opens.
American citizens charged with the same DUI get no such deal.
She told Jim Jordan it’s happened “three or four times” that she can recall — “fewer than 10 for certain.”
One law for citizens. A different one for everybody else.

Over 700,000 American tech workers were laid off since 2022.
Nearly 700,000 H-1B visas were issued to Indian nationals in the same timeframe.
The H-1B program is a scam that directly hurts the American worker.
It’s time to pass my American Tech Workforce Act and end this mess.
MisterMeeks9 retweeted
No more H-1Bs.
No more forcing our workers to compete with the world for jobs that should be reserved for Americans.
This is how we start building an economic future young Americans can believe in again.
Our message to corporate America is simple: We’re not going to let you lay off American workers so you can replace them with cheap foreign labor.
